hello all

the question i have isn't dnsmasq specific, but i hope in this
forum are a lot of dns cracks (i call me a newbie).

i hav a dyndns account for my dynamic ip, so that i can reach my
home lan from the internet. i also have a registered domain.

futher i can create in my dyndns account cnames for subdomains.
examples:

- - foo1.mydomain.org
- - foo2.mydomain.org
- - foo2.mydomain.org

what i have in mind is to run an apache2 server using name-based
vhosts for a school. example:

- - foo1.mydomain.org
- - foo2.mydomain.org
- - foo3.mydomain.org

now my question is, when a studend uses for example
foo1.mydomain.org in his browser, could the browser find my name-
based vhost (all vhost are behind the same router (wan-ip), or do i
have to configure for each vhost a different port.

the router runs dnsmasq. does dnsmasq have to find out which
subdomain leads to the wan-ip? or is there another possibility to
find out, which subdomain leads to the wan-ip?

any hint is welcome.

kind regards, go4unwkn.
